I currently work for my University at our information desk. Mainly I answer the phone and redirect the calls, answer questions in person (Where is this office located, who do I talk to for this, etc.) and I hand out ping pong and pool equipment. If I'm working the night shift, sometimes we have to set up for events and whatnot. It's usually a lot of sitting around and browsing Facebook and Reddit, plus I can get homework done during my gift too. It's an awesome job, and I love it, except it pays by the month instead of bi-weekly, so by the end of the month, those that have on-campus jobs are usually strapped for cash.

and this is me testing fun stuff.

I currently work full time in a fine wine store. Started 3 weeks ago and will work until June when I am going to the US/Canada to present at a conference and then start my PhD. I also tutor both privately and for a company which I absolutely love.

Have held lots of jobs before this though such as 3 years working at the kiosk in a mental hospital which was interesting.

I always used to do a summer job to pay my uni fees whichi ranged from factory work (I made bolts ) to working on wheat bins in rural WA and other fun things.

I work part-time as a lifeguard to bring in some extra cash. Nothing too exciting.

I've been working at a radio station as a DJ and audio engineer for about two years. It started as just a fun thing to do with some friends, but recently I've gotten pretty serious about it and want to see where audio production could take me. One of my professors is pushing me into checking out NPR or BBC when I graduate, and I'm seriously considering it.

I have 3 jobs.

I'm a street pharmacist dealing in street pharmaceuticals.

On the weekends I work as a call taker at a local cab company, I talk to drunk customers all night and send them taxis.

and lastly I've recently acquired a job at Best Buy for seasonal, I work in the gaming department.

BM - you really need to get a job at BBC. and get me coppies of planet earth and other sweet stuff

kainth - neat! i think it would be frustrating at times dealing with drunks over the phone. but being in the games department for short term sounds like it would be fun!

It's really more frustrating dealing with customers that don't speak English, half of them don't know where they are + have no idea how to say / spell the street name that they're on. I have to hang up on some of them it gets so bad. Working at Best Buy is pretty easy and fun, today for the first 30 minutes of our shift the entire staff played word arranging games and everyone was getting super into it. It was hilarious.

Haha awesome! Sounds like a great group of people

well, i'm a college radio dj at unc-chapel hill's station, wxyc.
i get to kick it and play tasty jams for three hours a time, at least once a week, sometimes more.
i don't get paid. but it's fun and i love it nonetheless.

yep yep.

I work full time (40ish hours) as a manager at the local McDonald's. I spend my day cooking (literally) thousands of burgers or dealing with arrogant customers who I don't really want to talk to and who don't really want to talk to me. I also have to look after the staff, ensure that they are all working efficiently, aren't in any immediate danger and that the customers are happy and not dying.
I also am in charge of the Apprenticeship program that was set up by the Government a few years back. Basically it's like getting A-Levels whilst you work. All based around Maths and English, but applied to what goes into running the store.
I work shift work, which changed on a day to day basis. I have an early tomorrow, then a late on Wednesday, then a day on Thursday. I guess I like my job, especially since the promotion, but it does come with it's downfalls, like with all jobs that involve the public. I have had things thrown at me, called every name under the sun, even threats to my life... (funny story). Apart from those jackasses, the general atmosphere is great. I enjoy working with people, and I enjoy working in a customer driven environment. The people are good, and you can always have a laugh with anybody, just have to try hard enough. I regularly have the Business Manager threaten to headbutt me. Actually happened at the last meeting...

I just started working as valet for one of the nicest Mercedes Benz dealerships in the country. Apparently they have the most sales of any other Benz dealership but I park cars, move cars, re-park cars that are blocking cars that mechanics need, and deliver cars to customers once all is said and done.

I love driving so I really enjoy the work. It's 8:30-1:30 mon-sat so I'll be able to start taking classes and continue working. Minimum wage isn't going to cut it because I really want to get my own place despite how expensive it is in southern california, but Machinima has room for another editor and they want me to fill it, only I don't have any means of transportation yet

Soon though!

Azureus - that sounds like it would be fun! something defeat would certainly like.

gamestar - i dont know if i could deal with the public like that. must be tough some days. but why did someone threaten to take your life?


healer - win.
this job sounds like its great!!

Times are rough for a DJ, though. Especially in Chicago and the surrounding suburbs. We have the 3rd largest market in the country, and a few months ago they took away our "alternative" rock station. It's alllll pop now. No rock and/or roll in Chicago?!? FML.
